did you get anything good for Christmas.
I got several usefull things i got a 40 peice tap and die set metric of coarse. I also got a 90 amp flux core welder was sceptical at first but i looked it up and checked out the reviews seems like a pretty good little lightweight portable welder was a gift so i will give it a shot now i have a stick and that look out metal Thanks Santa http://www.harborfreight.com/90-amp-flu ... l?limit=50

 

I just got a pair of generator brushes from a member in PA, not much compaired to your hoard, cutlass, but I'm grateful just the same.

 

Geez Wiz! Can't you at least wait for Christmas to roll around to our hemisphere before you start gloating????!!!

Merry Christmas!

Loren

 

Yeah really! Some of us have just woke to see if any advice for their turbo was posted on this forum and I see that Cutlass must have bribed his wife in order to open his presents on the 24TH instead of Christmas and Wiz, from that upsidedown Country is already playing with his toys while I'm just getting a cup of coffee before the fun starts....

I hope that everyone has a fantastic Christmas and enjoy your kids and parents......

(Cutlass, one of my friends lent me what I think is that welder and it popped breakers if I plugged it into a regular wall recepticle, I had to hook it up to a 20 amp breaker)

 

got a 1977 gl 1000 fully dressed in mint cond and a heck of a wake up from the wifie but i cant talk about that

 

let's see here, one whole year of being a bad boy or presents at Christmas ?
i didn't get squat

 

Yeh, got a new GPS . I'll be in the garage today mounting it. If if does not snow I'll go take a ride and test it out.

 

Well, not exactly me but we got our youngest son an r/c helicopter and I was having LOADS of fun until my eldest son crashed it (Probably trying to be too clever) and broke it . Now waiting for the postman to bring a replacement part!!!

Eldest son did redeem himself by buying me the "Royle family" boxed set - nothing to do with the Queen I hasten to add!

 

New set of tires for the 650 from my wife. She really suprised me with that one

 

Lol I got a RC Helicopter ^_^

When somebody says "That's pretty cool, can I have a go?" say NO!!

 

Ehh what do you mean? I thinks its bad ass.

 

i think he is jealus because his kid broke his

 

Hehehe

 

looks like we all had a good Christmas except for Polock but i don"t think Santa gives the devil anything lol. looks like Screenmaster got the biggest gift of all and a motorcycle to boot lol . But we all got the best gift of all we woke up this am and spent the day with our loved ones. Only because the parts store wasn't open lol. It has been a long time since we have had a white Christmas in Atlanta I am sure that made a lot of people happy

 

I got an 82 XJ 1100 with just over 38,xxx on it with a box of goodies and two new tires.

 

Received a 50-piece Kobalt air tool kit from my lady -- ohh boy are we gonna tear some stuff up with that

 

Got some cash for parts and tools

 

I got to take my sled up to 90mph this evening.... but decided I wasn't gonna give it any more throttle since I was only about half way depressed. This one's got a lotta snot....especially on the high end.

(97 Indy Ultra 700 triple)

I also got a brand new router with fixed and plunge bases, along with a router pantograph unit. No bike tools or toys though.....yet.

Got a 125amp mig welder, a RC Helicopter(seems like everybody got one), the Beatles Red & Blue CD's, and some cash to buy motorcycle goodies.

 

Got REI gift cards, some cool cooking ingredients, and some cash. No bike parts, but the birthday is just over a week away

 

i got a $100 gift card from harbor freight! a new 6.5hp horizontal shaft engine for my pit bike is on the horizon!

 

Got a 1/10 RC Drift car and a Terabyte External Hard drive.

 

I got a LifeSpan Model C3-8 Upright Indoor Exercise Bike.

Computer Operated.
Silent.
Multi-Programmable Exercise Bike
Features a Program that allows you to set a "Target Heart Rate" and the Bike
adds or reduces resistance to keep you at the level you set while you exercise.

Smooth as silk.
Free-wheel Mechanism powers a V-Belt to turn the Flywheel from a High quality Mountain Bike Crank-set.
A quarter-moon arrangement of permanent magnets is servo-adjusted to apply frictionless resistance to the flywheel.
Very High-tech.

 

lets put a motor on that e bike and put some real miles on it lol

 

Some years ago I had to visit a customer who ran a "Toning table" salon. Basically, the machines moved while rather large ladies lay on them. They were motor and speed control driven but I couldnt see how they would get any benefit!!

 

My son bought me a 73 piece Stanley socket set. Wife got me a new camera to document all my adventures. Daughters got me a couple sweaters and a "Wipeout" game for the Wi. Parents sent cash so I just ordered a Tutoro chain oiler and have my eye on some motorcycle luggage on E-bay.

 

Santa brought me a torque wrench and a check valve (brake bleeder). Perfect timing where I'm about to start putting the front end back together =D

 

A warm sunny day the wind in my face and some sweeping bends...wether it's time to celebrate conspicuos consumption, two teams fighting over a leather bag of hot air or a horse race, in Aus the traffic is noticably reduced for a time, a good time to have th road nearly to y'self .....and a ho ho ho from me.

 

A new riding jacket
Carb sync gauges
carb kit for the 78 XS1100
new grips
New seat

Now I juat need some time to work on the bikes.

 

Just bought a carb kit from CycleX, will install and update my build thread soon! :twisted:

 

i see a lot of good gifts being posted up!

my banner gifts would have to be Kibblewhite one piece oversized valves and new rear tires (for my race machine), and i received a texture spray gun and material to do polyurethane spray in bedliner (or whatever else you want to spray).

 

I got my Cafe seat and a bunch of cash to buy parts.

 

I got a rusty 1975 xs650 project...my family thinks I'm crazy that I was so excited about a non-running motorcycle that is 35 years old!

Now it just needs to warm up enough to get in the garage and work on it!

 

thats an easy fix i had the same problem keep an eye out on cl or i got my torpedo heater at northern tool 75000 btu for $75.00 last year. Makes the garage nice and warm in about 15 min. Good luck with the project
